moveAttachmentWherePending

void moveAttachmentWherePending(Note note)

IllegalArgumentException - if the given Note is null
IllegalArgumentException - if the Note does not have a valid object id

deletePendingAttachmentsModifiedBefore

void deletePendingAttachmentsModifiedBefore(long modificationTime)
Deletes pending attachments that were last modified before the given time. Java does not have easy access to a file's creation time, so we use modification time instead.

Parameters:
modificationTime - the number of milliseconds since "the epoch" (i.e.January 1, 1970, 00:00:00 GMT). java.util.Date and java.util.Calendar's methods return time in this format. If a pending attachment was modified before this time, then it will be deleted (unless an error occurs)

getAttachmentByNoteId

Attachment getAttachmentByNoteId(Long noteId)
